The C3 is the 36mm version of our best-selling watch model, combining best-in-class durability with timeless design and functionality. Offering a minimalist retro-sized case, the C3 is the pinnacle of everyday comfort and function.

The C3 model is perfectly suited for underwater activity. The case back and crown use a threaded screw-down design that maintains an airtight seal, making the watch functionally waterproof. Importantly, unlike most ocean-rated watches, our USA Custom Built quartz is also incredibly slim and comfortable on the wrist, boasting a 36mm diameter and a sub-10mm thickness, which is rare on watches with a locking crown function.

To further enhance the value and "ocean-to-office" functionality of the watch, every C3 comes standard with two interchangeable bands. Our Vaer band options include a range of both ocean-ready bands designed for water-based activities and our premium Horween leather straps which are tanned in Chicago and handmade in the USA from heavy native steer hides.

In addition to Made in USA leather straps, every Vaer C3 is hand-assembled and tested in America. US-based sourcing for the C3 line increases our cost of goods nearly 30%. We’re committed to American Assembly for the C3 model, not only because it improves product quality, but because it adds a strong sense of place and personality to our brand.
